Stomatal Control and Leaf Thermal and Hydraulic Capacitances under Rapid Environmental Fluctuations
Figure 4
Observed and simulated leaf temperatures for an understorey plant in a tropical rain forest.
Simulations are conducted for fully closed stomata (red) and a stomatal conductance of 0.01 m s−1 (blue). Observed leaf temperatures (yellow dots) and air temperatures (green dashed line) are taken from [19] and plotted against local time.
